“Liv....” Dan says softly to me

“Huh? Yea...”

“Come on baby...the times up...we need to know.”

I took a deep breath and stood up from my bed as Dan took hold of my hands.

“Before we look I need to tell you this.” Dan smiles at me linking our fingers together as we stood face to face.

“I love you okay...so much. So I never want you to doubt that. Since we’ve been together it’s been the happiest time of my life. I know we’ve not had the most stable of relationships and we’ve had obstacles to overcome...more than most couple have in a life time but I find now it’s only made us stronger. So no matter what this result is....I will always be by your side. When I stood in front of you in Manchester and gave you the promise ring I meant every word and I still do. You are my world Tink...I love you so much.”

I couldn’t help but smile like a Cheshire cat as he spoke to me. It was so romantic, just confirming everything I loved about him over and over again. I unlinked our fingers wrapped my arms around his neck and kissed him passionately. “I love you so much Romeo.”

His lips gently pressed against my nose before pulling away, “Let’s go see what our future holds then Tink.”

We walked into the bathroom and stared at the three pregnancy tests that I’d taken.

*Positive*

*Positive*

*Positive*

I didn’t even have time to take in that I was pregnant before I was lifted into the air and spun around by Dan.

I wrapped my arms around his neck as the biggest smile appeared on my face. Dan placed me down on the side unit and stood between my legs.

“I can’t believe we’re pregnant.” He beamed

“Me neither.” I giggled “Kinda unexpected.”

“Yea I know...but we’re good. I know we are.”

“Yea we are.” I beamed, I ran my heads through his hair before gently stroking behind his ear.

“I love you so much.” Dan whispered, gazing into my eyes.

“I love you too Dan” I replied as he placed a delicate kiss on my forehead.

We wandered downstairs and curled up on the sofa, my head was leaning on Dan’s shoulder as he played with my fingers. We were discussing everything and anything. Our little get away tomorrow, Luke and Evie’s wedding at the weekend, Christmas, New Year and getting our own place.

“You hungry ?” I ask Dan looking up at him.

“Yea, what you fancy?”

“I duno, I’ll go see what we’ve got in.”

“Na, I’ll go look. You stay here.” Dan smiled standing up

“No offence , but I don’t trust your cooking. I can do it.” I laugh getting up

“But...”

“Dan I’m only pregnant, I can still cook” I reply winking at him and wandering into the kitchen. I decided to make us Shepherd’s Pie, we’d not had it in a while.

“Dan can you peel the spuds please?”

“Sure.”

We busied round each other in the kitchen as we prepared dinner. I was stood stirring the mince in the pan when I felt two arms wrap around my waist and a head fall on my shoulder.

“You do realise you’ve made me the happiest man alive today.”

I secretly smiled to myself before nodding.

“Guys you here?” I heard Luke shout

“Kitchen.” Dan replied, kissing down my neck repeatedly.

“Oh my god...is it true?” I heard Evie ask running in.

“Is what true?” I ask curious, before glancing up at Dan.

“Are you pregnant?” she grinned and a smile spread across my face

“AHHHHHHHHHHHHHH you are.” She screamed before pulling me into a hug

“How the hell did you know? We’ve only found out today.” Dan laughed before being pulled into a man hug by Luke

“Congrats lad.”

“Cheers mate.”

“Well...I recognised the letter I handed to Liv this morning from our nurse but I’ve had a craving for strawberry’s all day...so I just thought I’d ask. I’m so happy for you.”

“Thanks ” I grin still hugging Evie

“Your twin sense is freaking me out more and more.” Dan laughed before Evie let me go pulling him into a hug as I hugged Luke.

“Congratulation .”

“Cheers Luke”

We all stood in the kitchen whilst tea cooked before me and Evie dished up.

“I love your cooking Liv.” Luke smiled rubbing his stomach after we were done.

“Yea me too.” Dan mimicked Luke

“Well you can still have it when we move out.” I grin

“Ahh dammit.” Luke laughed... “I’ll be round every night.”

“And what about me?” Evie laughed “I can cook as well.”

“Yes...but sorry . Liv beats ya on that.”

“Actually...I do agree.” She laughed.

Eventually moving into the living room we went into the living room and curled up watching The Change Up.

It was only 9pm when the movie finished but I was shattered...it had been such an emotional day. So me and Dan made our way to to my room to pack for tomorrow and went off to bed.

“What time we leaving tomorrow ?” I ask Dan whilst removing my make-up.

“Don’t have to leave till after lunch so we can have a nice long lie in.” he smiled at me from his bed.

“Well I’ll have to ring in sick to work at seven.”

“I’ll do it, you can sleep. I can go straight back to sleep anyway...it takes you ages after you’ve woke up.”

“Awww you’re such a .” I smiled throwing the dirty wipe into the bin before brushing my teeth.

I climbed under Dan’s quilt curling up next to him, my head resting on his chest. “Night baby girl.” Dan whispered kissing my head

“Night .” I smiled pressing my lips on his chest.

***

My eye lids flickered open and adjusted to the light. I sat up in bed to see Dan on the phone to someone; he was on the other side of his room, sat on his window sill looking out the window. I walked over, grabbing one of his hoodies that was hanging off the back of his desk chair and slipping it over my head.

I wrapped my arms around his neck from behind and placed a kiss on his cheek.

“Okay, thank you. Bye.” He said before putting his phone down and pulling me round to sit between his legs.

“Who was that?” I ask leaning back against his chest as Dan hands stroked my stomach.

“The doctors.”

“Why? Is everything okay?” I panic turning around on my knees and looking at him

“Yea course dummy. It was for you.”

“Me why?” I smile

“Well you’re pregnant. I want to make sure everything is going okay with it.”

“Awww” I smile stroking his cheek

“Well you were worried so I want to put your mind at rest.”

“Thank you . So what did they say?”

“We have an appointment on Monday with the nurse.”

“Okay.” I smile before leaning forward and kissing him

“What was that for?” he grinned pulling away

“For just being you.”

We went for breakfast and got ready before getting into Dan’s car driving into the centre of London to get checked into our hotel for the night.

For me it was the perfect day...shopping hand in hand with my boy in the London sunshine before going back to the hotel and getting dressed up in my new dress to go out for a gorgeous meal and off to the theatre. My boy did know how to spoil me...and I god loved him for it.

***

“You enjoy that ?” Dan whispered as the curtains fell and I nodded.

“Everything okay?” he asked

I took in a deep breath and looked at him and nodded again as a couple of tears fell down my cheeks.

“Aww you soppy bugger come here.” He chuckled lightly pulling me into a hug before we stood up, making our way through the crowds and outside.

“It was amazing Dan...I just didn’t want Mufasa to die.” I reply to him, his fingers linked through mine as we stood outside waiting for our taxi.

“ it’s exactly the same as the movie.” He laughed “They wouldn’t change it.”

“Well they might have.” I replied pouting slightly.

“You do make me laugh .” He smiled sweetly at me before moving to stand behind me. Linking both our fingers together and wrapping them round my waist as his head resting gently on my shoulder. “I love you.”

“Love you too. Thanks for tonight...for today...I really needed this time with you.”

“Anything for my girl.” He whispered down my ear sending shivers throughout my body.

*Beep Beep*

“Taxi for Sutton.” A old gentleman shouted stepping out of his cab

“This is us.” Dan says pulling me gently towards the car. Ten minutes later we pulled up at our hotel and I stepped out as Dan paid the man. I looked up at the hotel smiling to myself at how thoughtful Dan had been. How had I become so lucky? To actually have him and call him mine.

“You ready?” Dan asked sneaking up behind me giving me a fright

“Shit Dan.” I giggle before nodding and walking into the hotel with him

“Sorry , didn’t mean to scare you.”

We got in the lift and up to our floor before Dan rummaged through his pockets for the key.

“Shit...where did I put it?” he mumbled walking to our door

“Looking for this?” I ask Dangling the key in front of him.

“Ahh thank god.” He grinned unlocking the door.

“You’d forget your head if it wasn’t screwed on.” I laughed following him inside.

I dumped my bag on the bed before wandering into the bathroom. I did what I needed to do before brushing my teeth. Half way through, Dan joined my, brushing his as well. He’d taken his tie and shirt off, leaving him in just his pants and socks. He looked so hot. This boy was made to be naked...clothes were just a waste on him.

I chuckled to myself thinking this as I wiped my mouth and wandered out of the bathroom, searching my suitcase for my make-up wipes.

“What you giggling at?” Dan asked following me out the bathroom.

“Ahh nothing...” I smile rubbing the mascara off my face. “Just thinking that your clothes are wasted on you.”

“What?” he laughed confused. I glanced at him through the mirror and smiled.

“You just look better naked.” I replied honestly.

As I finished up, putting the wipe in the bin, I felt a warm presence against my back.

The zip on the back of my dress was slowly lowered before i heard it hit the floor. “I think you look much better naked as well. This is much better.” Dan whispered, blowing gently on my neck. I tilted it to the side slightly as I felt his lips press down just under my ear before slowly descending and hitting my shoulder. His arms snaking around my now waist, grazing the top of my knickers.

“Ummmm Dan.” I moaned biting down on my lip

I slowly turned around in his grip, his fingers grazing my waist as I turned and now resting just under my knickers on my behind. Dan tilted my neck to the other side and began kissing up towards my ear then along my jaw line finally capturing my lips in a sweet kiss.

My hands fell from around his shoulders and down his toned body to his pants. I quickly undid his belt and unzipped them allowing them to fall to the floor. Dan stepped out of them kicking them to one side, eagerly pulling me closer to him.

Our tongues massaging one another’s in a slow steady rhythm. I was slowly being backed towards the large double bed that was waiting for us. His fingers slowly moving up my spine, making my whole body shiver to his touch. Seconds later I felt him unclip my bra before peeling it from my shoulders and letting it hit our feet. As we fell onto the bed, I slowly moved my body up towards the top, lying my head on the fluffy pillows as Dan hovered above me. Bringing his body closer to mine, Dan’s hand began slowly moving down my body before stroking against my knickers. I hungrily pulled his head closer to mine and made our kiss deeper as his fingers slipped inside me.

Moaning into our kiss I could feel him smiling, before he began kissing down my body very slowly. He removed his hand to my dismay but then cheekily glanced up at me from under the quilt before pulling my knickers down. They were thrown up towards my face causing me to giggle and throw them on the floor as Dan parted my legs and let his tongue get to work. I began biting down on my lips as not to moan too loudly but that didnt go to plan...I began to taste blood I was biting down that hard. I had to place a pillow over my face to try and contain myself. This feeling I was getting was nothing I had experienced before...FUCK MY LIFE. My toes began to cramp as I felt my body reach climax. It was so intense I removed the pillow from my face and just let out an almighty moan.

Dan began kissing the inside of my thigh before making his way back up my body. I was still trembling from that experience, I swear my heart was about to burst through my chest. I pushed my lips onto Dan’s and kissed him deeply before pulling away grinning. “Whatever you did differently to normal then...don’t EVER forget.” I wink at him and a huge grin spread across his face.

“Enjoy that did you ?” he whispered down my ear and all I could do was nod and giggle. We began kissing again, my arms around his neck, playing with his hair before slowly moving down his body. I rolled him over so that I was lay on top of him, his hands squeezing at my bum as his tongue traced itself across my lips. “I need to return the favour.” I mumble against his lips and he smiles into our kiss knowing what was coming.

I traced over his carefully toned abs with my fingers then slowly retraced them with my tongue causing low moans and pants to come from Dan’s mouth. I ran my tongue across the top of my boxers...I knew this drove him wild. I slowly pulled them down before chucking them out the side of the duvet. Slowly kissing the inside of his thigh i watched him bite down on his lip as his eyes rolled into his head. “FUCK” He moaned as my hand and mouth began to pleasure him. As he finished his hands clenched into tight balls next to him and he moaned so loud I thought the people in the next room would bang on our wall.

Kissing back up his body I was greeted by his gorgeous eyes staring at me and a huge cheeky grin upon his face. “You are so good at that.” He smiled at me before pulling me into a passionate kiss. “Why thank you. You seemed to enjoy it”

“Oh....yes I did.” He smirked before rolling me over and kissing me passionately. Soon enough he was ready to go again and he positioned himself between my legs before pushing himself into me.

This feeling I had in the pit of my stomach became much more intense as we made love. I could feel Dan’s heavy breathing down my neck as he began to move faster. I could feel the sweat dripping off us, this was amazing. Soon enough the cramping in my toes re-occurred as I felt myself reaching climax. I dug my nails into his back as he bit down my my shoulder as he too reached climax.

Rolling to his side of the bed, I automatically moved to rest my head on his chest. Our heavy panting and the drum of our heartbeats was all you could hear.

“I can’t wait to spend the rest of my life with you.” Dan whispered after a while of us just lying together.

“Me neither.” I smiled looking up at him as his hand rested on my stomach.

“Can’t wait to meet this little one either.”

I could tell he was beaming just talking about it. He was going to make such a good dad. “Only about eight months to wait.” I giggled

“Well let’s wait and see what the doctor says on Monday.”

“Yea, find out some more about this little munchkin.”

“Do erm....”

“What?” I ask him

“‘Do you think having sex is bad for the baby?”

“I don’t think so...I’m sure doctors would have warned everyone if it was harmful in anyway.”

“Good.” He smiled pulling me closer to him before yawning.

“Tire you out did I?” I whispered running my fingers along his chest

“Yea...but it was worth every second.”

“That it was .” I replied before yawning myself causing Dan to laugh

“I totally yawn raped you.”

“Hush you.” I laughed before yawning again, allowing my heavy eyelids to close.

“Let’s get to sleep then .”

“Uh huh.” I mumbled cuddling into his side

“Night gorgeous. I love you.”

“Love you too .”

And with that I drifted off into a peaceful sleep in the arms of the boy I loved with all my heart.

***

We pulled up onto the drive at about dinner time having checked out of the hotel. Tomorrow was the day of Luke and Evie’s wedding so we needed to make sure we had everything in order.

We walked through the front door to be greeted by Evie in tears.

“Oh my god whats wrong?” I ask running over.

“The reception....” she began before bursting out into tears.

“What’s happened?” I ask pulling her into a hug, looking over at Dan who shrugged his shoulders.

He wandered upstairs with our bags. “BUT WE BOOKED IT MONTHS AGO.” I heard Luke shout from the kitchen.

“Evie whats happened?”

“The reception has been double booked...we cant have it for the wedding.”

“You have to be shitting me?” I gasped but she shook her head

“We’ve been trying to get a last minute venue all morning but nothing.” She cried onto my shoulder as Dan came down the stairs.

“What’s happened?” he asked sitting down next to me.

“The venue for the reception has been double booked, they can’t find anywhere else at such late notice.”

“Shit.” He mumbled

We sat in silence for a couple of minutes as Evie cried into me and Luke continued to shout down the phone to someone in the kitchen.

“I HAVE A PLAN.” Dan shouted jumping up from the sofa

“What?” I ask, laughing slightly at him

“Luke get in here now.” Dan shouted and Luke trudged in.

“What?”

“I can save your wedding.” He grinned like he had all the answers.

“How?” Evie sniffed, blowing her nose before joining Luke on the other sofa.

“Luke your parents have a HUGE back garden right?”

“Yea...so”

“Oh I see.” I smiled at him and he nodded. I glanced at the other two who still looked confused.

“Well I’m sure we can hire out a huge marquee for tomorrow, go get it decorated and have it in your parents back garden. I doubt they would mind.”

“Oh my god Dan you little legend.” Evie shouted getting up and planting a huge kiss on his lips before realising what she did.

“Shit...sorry.” she says to me and I burst out laughing

“Shut up loser. We have your wedding to sort out now come on.”

“Luke call your parents and tell them what we’re doing. Dan get finding a marquee.” I say pointing at them and the nod before scrambling off.

“And me?” Evie asked

“Me and you are going to sit here and find some decorations we can fill the marquee with.” I giggle patting the sofa next to me.

“Okay.” She smiled picking up her ipad.

“I’ll make us a brew...you start looking.”

Within a couple of hours everything was sorted, Dan had managed to borrow a marquee from his friends, girlfriends, uncles, wife’s, brothers, son twice removed or something...anyway he had one. Luke had filled his parents in on the reception fiasco and they were more than happy to allow them to have it in the back garden. It was more like a field than a garden. Me and Evie had raided the home section of Primark, Debenhams and Next to find bits and pieces to decorate the marquee. The boys went to pick it all up whilst me and Evie finalised everything else. Making sure that the caterers knew about the venue change, the DJ and most importantly the guests.

Due to the wedding being double booked the original venue refunded the whole fee and even threw in three crates of champagne to show their apologies...thirty bottles of champagne...score. Shame we were both pregnant and unable to drink it.
